Re: Islamabad my city!
It's a place I would at least like to visit one day. Muree looks very touristy.
Re: Islamabad my city!
my husband is from islamabad...when i went last went to isb, we stayed with his parents...some was right.....there is no life in that city..too boring for the young pple..not much really to do (just goign to super, jinnah super and hang out)...but still it is a beautiful city and clean....by the way, what sector are u from in isb...my hubby used to live in G9/4...we're in mississauga now....
Re: Islamabad my city!
G-9/4 is highly populated area with Afghans and due to small and nerrow streets it does not give the right feeling. But the other areas are really gr8. I heard they have build a nice restaurent on Pir Suhawah and the road is wider then before. Also there is project to run chairlift upto Pir shuhawah. Wish there would have been a pic of Rawal Dam( green wood side ) and Shah-dara. Which is really nice place.
Re: Islamabad my city!
G-9/4 is probably the crowded sector, peshawar mor and itwar bazaar area are quite dirty.
Re: Islamabad my city!
well sorry for not living in the F- sector...what exactly is the "right feeling"? and i was talking about the whole city being boring..not that one sector... i used to live in I8/4...and its the same feeling there...boredom!!!..even though it is a bit crowdy and dirty, what part of pakistan isnt? isnt that the "right feeling" of pakistan anyways????? but the food was good...me and my hubby used to go that nazir juice house every night for some chicken burgers..yummy!
Re: Islamabad my city!
Right feeling means that it looks very crowded and you feel like that it is not Islamabad but a part of another city placed their. Again I -8/4 is newly built area and their is no life there no even a nice market to buy things. The only live areas in islamabad are Blue area, F-10 Markaz, G-9 Markaz, Junnah Market and super market areas where you find some what intresting.
I miss Munchies in Super and Karim's Samoosa in pindi.
Re: Islamabad my city!
Bookworm, you got to be a true Islamabadi to know about munchies and Karim samosas in Pindi.
mfs555, nothing wrong with living in G-9/4, I loved the afghani at peshawar mor and I have had a few juice glasses at Karims, and then the original sufi restaurant is also at peshawar mor. And the reason it is dirty is because it is crowded and because of the suzuki stand.
And bookworm, I-8/4 has changed, it has a pretty good crowd now, although most of the people living there are not the old Islamabadis.
Re: Islamabad my city!
Ashtray, you mean that bus stop at Faizabad is no longer part of I-8/4...for me E-7 and I-8/3 are the best areas in Islamabad for living.
Well I am not Islamabadi but know it by heart. I wish I would go back and dicover parts of Pakistan which I nerver been and only read about them.
Re: Islamabad my city!
You are right about faizabad, I was infact commenting on the whole I-8 area. Again I dont normally go there as it is kind of out of the way, same goes for E-7.
Have you explored the northern areas?
Re: Islamabad my city!
Ashtray, I been to Northern Areas but not deep inside. I am planning to explore them soon.
Re: Islamabad my city!
This is why I Love my city. Beautiful pictures.
btw the most posh sectors are of F-10, F-11, I-8, I-9, I-10 and E-7. Others have small houses,narrow streets or are either allocated to Govt. employees.
